“Blithe Spirit”, a comedy by Noël Coward, directed by Anne Johnson, opens this weekend at the playhouse. The play, set in 1920s England, concerns the socialite and novelist Charles Condomine, who invites the eccentric medium and clairvoyant, Madame Arcati, to his house to conduct a séance, hoping to gather material for his next book. The scheme backfires when he is haunted by the ghost of his annoying and temperamental first wife, Elvira, after the séance. Elvira makes continual attempts to disrupt Charles's marriage to his second wife, Ruth, who cannot see or hear her. Rivalry between the two causes an unfortunate death, and the two “blithe spirits” make Charles’ world impossible.
The cast includes:
Stacy Tiffin as Charles Condomine
Cindy Young as Ruth Condomine
F.E. Quiles as Elvira Condomine
Karen McKaig as Madame Arcati
Jerome Sexton as Dr. George Bradman
Deb Smith as Violet Bradman
Aubriana Chambers as Edith, the maid
